'She is quite a phenomenon': Joe Biden admits to 'catching snippets' of Here Comes Honey Boo Boo on Air Force Two as reality TV sensation, 7, muscles her way into presidential debate YET AGAIN

Honey Boo Boo has yet again made it into the Presidential election campaign - this time with Vice President Joe Biden admitting to 'catching snippets' of the TLC show on Air Force Two.

Quizzed about his pop culture habits, gaffe-prone Mr Biden revealed his favourite television shows were 'Modern Family' and 'Parks and Recreation' in an interview with a Miami Radio station on Friday.

But he said he was well aware of the phenomenon that is 'Here Comes Honey Boo Boo' after watching the program while travelling.

'Beyond Modern Family and Parks and Recreation, that's about it, those are ones that I spend most of my time (watching),' Biden told 93.9 MIA radio.

'I haven't spent most of my time with pop culture that, like, my granddaughter talks about. Like Honey Boo Boo is not top on my list, but I am aware just, you know by catching snippets on Air Force Two, (that it is) quite a phenomenon. But, but I do try.'

After revealing that Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney preferred Snooki over her, Mr Kimmel asked the TV sensation: 'So now I have to ask you, who are you going to support for president? Mitt Romney or Barack Obama?

'Barack Obama,' Honey Boo Boo said unwaveringly.

Mr Biden also discussed recovery efforts for Hurricane Sandy and the importance of early voting, in the interview.

'It takes a lot of hard work after the fact, ' he said of the storm relief. 'We've got a lot of clean-up to do, we have got to get people back on their feet and then it's going to be a matter of just staying with it. And as the President said we are not leaving. The Federal Government will continue to do their part.

'One thing I'm proud of with the President is he has cut through all the red tape. We have done things in this recovery that have never been done before like working directly with the power companies, working directly with the governors, changing any impediment that would slow up any help getting there... But this is going to take months.'

Back on the pop culture front, Mr Biden told the radio station that he listens to Adele on his iPod and added that, after next week's election, he is looking forward to a well-earned break.

'Well, I am going to take a vacation about three days after this election is over. The President called me, Joe, don't plan on doing so much. We are planning on going overseas,' Mr Biden said.
